Title: The worst part of the day
Fandom: Lost
Characters: Rachel Carlson/Kevin Callis
Rating: PG
Words: 100
Summary: In spite of everything, anxiety and baggage can be resilient.
Notes: Soooo this is for OTP Appreciation Week at drabblefix. Yaaay, my minor-character OTP! ♥ (Juliet's sister and Kate's ex-husband, just in case you needed a reminder.) I've wanted to write something for this pairing for a stupidly long time. Does it exist anywhere else? If not, it should. These two make so much sense.
The worst part of the day
For him, it's in the morning. Waking up to harsh sunlight and an empty bed always brings a few moments of blind panic. Calm down, he tells himself. Calm down, she's just in the shower. He can't shake the fear that maybe, one day, she won't be there.
(She always is.)
For her, it's in the evening. She ends up flicking anxious glances between the clock and the front door, pacing, praying for the telltale sounds of his keys, his footsteps - his anything. She can't shake the fear that maybe, one day, he won't come home.
(He always does.)
